2. Solubility: Acid Blue 113 is soluble in water (purple), ethanol (violet-blue), and ethylene glycol ether; slightly soluble in acetone; insoluble in organic solvents such as ether, benzene, and mineral oil.
3. Ion Type: Strong anionic dye; Acid Blue 113 forms ionic bonds with protein fibers and is suitable for weakly acidic to neutral dye baths (pH 4–7).
4. Chemical Stability:
Dyeing Performance and Application Points (Production Process Special)
1. Applicable Fibers: Wool, silk, nylon (polyamide) dyeing and printing; wool/silk, wool/nylon blended fabrics; Tracid Dark Blue 5R is also used for knitted velours, blankets, and carpet dyeing.
2. Dyeing Process: Weakly acidic to neutral bath (pH 4–7, adjusted with acetic acid or ammonium sulfate); dyeing begins at 40–50°C, then heated to 90–95°C and held for 30–40 minutes, ensuring excellent leveling.
3. Dyeing Characteristics:
- Leveling: Excellent, with smooth dye uptake and low risk of color unevenness.
- Affinity: High; Acid Blue 113 achieves over 85% dye uptake on protein fibers.
- Shade Blending: Tracid Dark Blue 5R blends well with Acid Yellow and Orange to produce dark green and olive green shades; with Acid Red to form purple and black; with Acid Blue to yield navy blue.
- Wet Fastness: Excellent (wash fastness 4–5, perspiration fastness 4–5).
